No, they haven't been putting any new ones for a long time.

Had a look at the Guardian Archive and I found what was featured in The Chart Show. Not sure why I had different listings from the Times Archive, perhaps there was error in my part or the newspaper's error. Anyway this is what was the main specialist charts in the dates below:

There were no further episodes until the Xmas edition in December 1986

Currently on Wikipedia, it's been written that the Chart Show was taken off during the summer, but this clearly wasn't the case according to the Guardian Archives. Although after October 1986, The Chart Show was replaced by a new series of The Tube, which ultimately ended by the end of April 1987 and then The Chart Show came back in May 1987. It seems only one episode was cancelled during the summer of 1986 and that was on 8th August 1986, which was replaced by what it seems a one off show called REWIND, which was basically a compilation of artist performances on Channel 4 music shows. Why, the Chart Show was cancelled on that date, well it seems once again according to wikipedia, that there was a dispute between the Musicians Union and The Chart Show over music videos being shown on Channel 4, where artists I guess weren't paid or something related to that. The show was produced by the same people, who produced The Chart Show. Also, the reggae chart seem to been dropped by The Chart Show after August, which could explain why there was no Reggae Chart in the Chart File Update after August and also no Reggae Chart of 1986 in the Xmas edition.

There were no further episodes until the Xmas edition on 2nd January 1989. Five days later on 7th January 1989, the Chart Show was moved to ITV until the last ever episode on 22nd August 1998.

Whoops the 4th December 1987 episode should be the NETWORK ALBUM CHART and the 11th December 1987 episode should be the HEAVY METAL CHART. I think The Chart Show changed the specialist charts, because according to the Guardian archive, the 4th Dec 87 episode was the Heavy Metal chart, but by watching the 4th Dec 87 episode on the internet, it is clear it is the NETWORK ALBUM CHART.

Why doesn't Chart Show TV use any of its predecessor's features anymore (apart from the "chart" obviously)? I liked their New Release/Chart Breaker/Video Vault section that the old Chart Show (and Chart Show TV's earlier charts) used to do, and how about those PLAY and FFWD segments from the old Chart Show? Why wasn't it passed on to the new one? Is it just "better" to play songs in full?

The original chart show had to fit into 52 minutes so they couldn't play every song in full they had to cut them off plus these days they are competing with the other channels and need to have a similar format people today would not accept having their videos chopped off like we did it is something we liked about the show but i suspect teens these days would frown at it and think it was strange present company excepted.
